Summary

After some quick Tournament Structure errata, we finally get to sink our teeth into the Underworld expansion talking about the Corvid Conspiracy. We’re on record saying the Lizard Cult is a bad faction, but we didn’t realize how bad it can get. The Corvids can certainly shine, but what we’ve seen from the tournament is a faction that is easy to stop and just enough self-balancing that it can be hard to find your footing. But let’s learn them so you can make your own judgement! 4:20 - Ep 178 Errata (Tournament Structure and Signups) 14:00 - Learning the Corvid Conspiracy 20:13 - Abilities 25:16 - Setup 26:39 - Plot Tokens 34:31 - Birdsong 41:18 - Daylight 47:12 - Evening 52:19 - Opening Ideas 1:01:01 - Crafty Corner: Base Deck 1:11:34 - Crafty Corner: Exiles and Partisans 1:23:31 - Pitfalls 1:30:45 - Where do we find our victory?
